Top 5 Sex Positions for Hitting It From Behind

Because eye contact is overrated

There are very few pleasures in life that even come close to the intense pleasure of getting it from behind.

Todd was the first guy who fucked me in a way that felt genuinely passionate.

It was fast and hard without being aggressive. He grabbed me in a way that made me feel wanted.

And he loved to bend me over and fuck me doggystyle.

I don’t think that’s a coincidence. There’s something primal about hitting it from behind, and it definitely felt that way with him.

He would grab my hips and pull me into him while he fucked me. He slammed into me with such force that it wasn’t just like he was fucking me — it felt like he couldn’t resist me.

Feeling his cock thrusting inside me was amazing. It taught me just how good it can feel to get jackhammered.

We tried a few other positions. He would bend my legs back in missionary when he was feeling romantic. Once he tried to show off with a complicated, quasi-gymnastic position that I still don’t fully understand, but it got the job done.

Those were all fun. But they couldn’t match the excitement I felt when he’d get me on my knees and I’d wait for his strong hands and hard cock to do their thing.

Sadly, things didn’t last very long with Todd. We were off and on because we weren’t terribly compatible, but we had hot sexual chemistry and he gave me that good dick. Then we were off completely because I fell in love, and a really good, hard fuck can’t compete with that — though it’s a very strong contender.

I moved on quickly, but I kept the memories and my love of getting fucked from behind.

Over the years, I found ways to refine it. I learned that shifting my hips, even just a little, can make a big difference to the sensations.

I found that arching my back also affects just how deep and pleasurable the penetration feels.

And I tried out every position I could think of. Some are definitely better than others. These are my favorites.

Doggystyle

This is the classic position for hitting it from the back, and for good reason. A really good doggystyle fuck feels intense, deep, and is going to have your lady gripping the sheets tightly.

I also love the feelings of hips slamming into my ass while I’m getting fucked. It’s like getting spanked and pounded all at once, which is an incredible combination.

Fucking someone doggystyle is also going to help you fuck harder and more vigorously because you can grab her hips for leverage and even pull her toward you for a deeper, faster fuck that won’t wear you out as quickly.

And there’s just something about a woman being on all fours that makes her look incredibly hot and inviting.

The biggest challenge with doggystyle, though, is managing the angle of penetration. Your cock won’t always slide into her as effortlessly as it does in missionary.

You might have to give yourself a few moments to adjust, reposition yourself, and get her to move her knees forward or back so you can find a spot that feels comfortable for both of you.

It takes a smidge of patience, but it’s worth it. Because once you find your angle, you’ll both forget those awkward few seconds and get lost in some highly pleasurable thrusting.

Face Down, Ass Up

This is a variant on doggystyle but there are a few things about it that make it feel very different.

First, it’s more vulnerable. She’s still going to be on her knees and bent over, but because she isn’t propping herself up with her arms, she’ll be even more exposed. That position doesn’t just show off her ass, it puts her pussy and asshole on full display.

That can make for an extremely appealing visual, and it can be a big turn-on for her too. If she loves feeling like a dirty girl, presenting herself that way is going to be arousing for her. Even more so if she’s submissive, because being in this position is going to make her feel like she’s giving her body to you.

She might also enjoy it if she’s one of my fellow lazy ladies. There’s a bit of work involved for her — she has to push her ass up and arch her back. But she’ll also get to lay her upper body down on the mattress and give her arms a break.

The penetration is also going to feel even deeper than it does in doggy. I feel like I’m getting every single inch of my partner’s cock whenever he fucks me like this.

And you won’t just get a great look at her ass when she pushes it up for you — you’ll also have a much easier time fucking it. This is by far the most comfortable position for anal sex, especially when you’re getting started. Your legs might get a bit sore, but her ass won’t and that’s what really counts.

Spooning

I love spooning because it’s such an all-purpose position. The way your bodies are pressed together makes it sensual and intimate, but you can also fuck her pretty damn hard. She’ll also have an easier time adjusting and shifting her hips, which will help you find the perfect angle.

The major downside with this position is that you’ll be hitting it from behind while not actually getting a good look at her behind. But you can watch her face and the way her expression changes while you fuck her, which can be even hotter.

It also gives you a lot of opportunities to use your hands.

You can hold her leg up so you can thrust deeper inside her. Even though you can’t actually see her pussy from that position, having her spread like that is going to make her feel exposed, which she might be really into. I feel like a pornstar whenever I’m in that position because I know if there was a camera in the room, it could get a perfectly clear shot of my pussy getting fucked.

You can grope her tits, gently pinch and tug her nipples, or run your spit-slicked fingers across them.

You can wrap your hand around her throat if that’s something she’s really into and you know how to do it safely.

You can hold her shoulder, run your fingers in her hair, or squeeze her hips.

But one of the best things you can do while spoonfucking her is rub her pussy.

That can be tricky if she likes to have her clit stroked at a different speed than she wants to be fucked. I personally get off the most from soft, slow stroking while getting fucked hard and fast. Not the easiest thing to pull off, but it’s worth putting in the effort to give her some of the best pleasure she can experience.

You can also use one of her vibrators on her, which she will most certainly appreciate and will probably almost certainly make her come the hardest.

And since you’re right behind her, don’t forget to whisper and growl dirty words in her ear. It’s going to drive her absolutely wild.

Sideways Doggy

I don’t know if this position has a name, but it involves your lady lying on her side, legs up toward her chest, while you kneel and fuck her.

This position is great because it allows your lady to get fucked at the same great angles she can enjoy while spooning. But it also gives you more of the control you have when you’re pounding her doggystyle.

From that position, you can also grab her hip or her thigh to stabilize yourself, or give her ass a really good squeeze.

And if your cock curves to the side, this can be a great way to take advantage of that. With the right angle, your curve will be able to hit her G-spot with every thrust and make her moan deeply.

I’ve also been impressed with this position for during anal sex. It’s not an obvious choice for fucking her ass, but it gives you a very decent angle and plenty of control to make sure you stick to a speed and pace that’s pleasurable for her.

Bouncing on the Dick

This one isn’t so much you hitting her from the back as it’s her fucking you while facing away.

It’s a variant on reverse cowgirl, but instead of lying down while she rides you, you recline off the edge of the bed. With your feet planted on the floor, and your back either flat on the mattress or propped up slightly, she straddles you and bounces on your cock like it was a piece of playground equipment.

This one is really fucking fun. It’s going to be quite a leg workout on her end, but she’ll have full control over the depth and speed and she’ll feel like she’s in charge for as long as she can keep it up.

It’s one of the few ways of hitting it from the back that allows you to just lie back and enjoy the action. My husband says he loves the view, too, so if you want to see what she looks like in this position, ask her to bounce on your cock for a while.

And if you want to be a more active participant, you can grab her hips or grope her ass while she’s having a ride.

Man the Rear

It’s hard to explain exactly why it’s so damn satisfying to get fucked from behind. All I can say is that something about it makes me feel desired. It’s like I’m being taken, claimed, and then pounded all the way to a really intense orgasm.

Most of us have also been conditioned to see those positions as less wholesome than missionary or cowgirl. That’s part of the appeal, too. Even though I don’t think there’s any reason why anyone shouldn’t feel romanced by a good face down, ass up fuck, I still love the way it feels just a touch dirtier to do it that way.

But the reasons why don’t really matter. All that matters is that it’s hot as hell and feels fucking incredible too.

So, if you want to show your lady an amazing time, turn her on with plenty of foreplay. Finger her like a pro and eat her out like there’s nothing else you’d rather be doing. And when she’s wet and ready for your cock, grab her hips and fuck her as hard as she can handle.
